13 xdmxconfig reads, edits, and writes configuration files for the Xdmx
14 server. The grammar for the configuration file is specified in the
15 Xdmx(1) manual page.

17 To start from scratch, create a "New Global" and specify the name and
18 overall dimensions for the configuration. Then use "New Display" to
19 enter more displays.

22 will bring up a selection menu.

24 In the right-hand pannel, the left mouse button will move the high‐
25 lighted display at "tool resolution"; the middle mouse button will move
26 the highlighted display by a single pixel (at "wall resolution"); and
27 the right mouse button will bring up a menu allowing the highlighted
28 display to be edited or deleted. The arrow keys will also move the
29 highlighted display by a single pixel.

32 Currently, entries with the wall keyword are not editable, but will be
33 preserved in the new output file. The tool will quit when requested by
34 the user, even if a configuration file has not been written out (i.e.,
35 without warning). The menu interaction should be improved (menu en‐
36 tries that don't currently work should be greyed-out, for example).
37 The Help button does not work.
